Rear thrust angle. Is there anything I can do and how concerning is this?

    Couple of questions to get a little more information

    Has the vehicle been in an accident?
    Number of miles on existing tires & if wearing due to a toe issue, Had they been recently rotated?
    Are the original owner?
    What modifications, If any, have been done on your rig?
    Are you experiencing any pulling during vehicle operation?
    When aligned, Did you have any additional weight in the rear of your Runner?

    Welcome to the forum, Andrew. Just asking these questions to see if any one area may have a larger impact than another.

    Hello,

    Thanks for the welcome and the reply.

    Vehicle has not been in any accidents. I am the second owner and there is 50000 miles currently. No modifications other than I put on some TRD wheels that have about 2000 miles on them. I bought the vehicle from a Toyota dealer user in the beginning of October and it came with newer tires with no noticeable wear. I had an alignment done recently and the thrust angle was brought to my attention. The only issue I notice is the steering wheel is the tiniest bit to the right at highway speeds. It's really mostly weighing on my OCD and not sure if this can be corrected or if it's even something I should worry about. Thanks for any insight.

    Sorry forgot to add there was no extra weigh aside from some car seats.

    Is it lifted with an uncorrected panhard angle?
